Peanut Granola Bars

Everyone has a favorite granola bar. Chewy,crunchy, fruit filled or dried fruit with the oats; the combinations are endless. My mom's favorite are super crunchy with oats and nuts. I enjoy them but they are a bit too crunchy and a bit too sweet. I feel granola bars should stop trying to be candy bars. When you want a nice snack to keep you going during the day they shouldn't be weet enough to be confused with dessert.

This is a great recipe for granola bars that combines all the delicious things you want. If you want to make these nut free, you can just double the amount of butter instead of using peanut butter and leave out the peanuts.
